Someone Met Me and Gave Me a New Name...

She said, "What is your name?"

I said, "Crum, or Justin. Which ever one your more comfortable with."

"You look like a Caleb."

"A Caleb? What does that mean?"

"I don't know, it just sounds like a name you look like."

After this, I had wondered the meaning of the name. So I looked up what it was and it was originally Hebrew, and means "Rage Like a Dog." I thought that was fascinating.


Then later on, me and my room mate Nick went to the snack bar. Vernal, the Lunch Lady, she saw us both there and before we had a conversation that was kind of funny, I was already bustin' up laughin hard because before hand... I just went in to look at the food and someone who has never seen me for more than 5 seconds or minutes asked me out of no where, "Are you Irish?"

"Huh?" : ) "What makes you ask me that? Hahaha."

She seen me and believed I was Irish and she has never seen me before. I was like, "Ain't that Some Shit?" My room mate saw the whole thing. Then because I was chucklin'. Vernel asked us where we were from. Me and my room mate Nick described a lot of hilarious times. She said, "You both got beautiful eyes. Which one of you are naughty?" (She didn't mean it like that or in any implying way, it was more so asking about something like 'Edge' I guess. It was just informal and probably relative to party things.)

I looked at Nick. He looked at me. I said, "That one is me." And somehow, after a few moments, it was said that Nick snores. And nick was like, "I snore but HE yells."

I'm like, "Yeah, I talk humorous shit in my sleep sometimes."

Nick HAD to tell it true too so he did, "He sounds loud and very clear." Then he explained how I once started yelling about Giant Butterflies."

"Yeah, I had a dream about Giant Butterflies here once."

Nick started laughin' cuz it's true. Nick is a good kid and he is smart with science and pharmacy.

The whole Snack Bar night here was cool. I started laughin' and relaxin' when someone who never knew me asked if I was Irish. And that was BEFORE they saw the Cross of Scriptures Shirt on my Chest. I just took it as a coincidence or maybe something more. Then to hear this same thing about eyes that a lot of people put in my year books years ago... It was just crazy.

And to have someone else ask me my name and then say I look like a man with the name 'Caleb.' As I found out what that meant in the internet... That was kind of interesting.
